Welcome to the Scuba UK Diving web site... Learn to scuba dive with a friendly Essex based PADI dive school in Thurrock and Basildon, offering the world recognised PADI system of dive education with PADI scuba courses to suit everyone. When learning to scuba dive with Scuba UK Diving, we guarantee our student divers quality, value for money scuba diving courses, with all PADI dive training and education delivered by our highly experienced professional PADI dive instructors.

At Scuba UK Diving we offer a complete range of PADI scuba courses from scuba experience and entry level scuba courses through to professional instructor level. We offer our dive students flexible training schedules together with our relaxed and friendly training environment. All of our professional instructors hold current fit to dive medicals and personal liability insurance which we validate to all students at the commencement of your course. All instructors conducting your scuba training are also fully certified CPR and first aid instructors, so you can be assured that your experience with Scuba UK Diving will be a relaxed, enjoyable and SAFE one.

Scuba UK Diving is able to offer what many larger dive centres and dive schools do not... reduced student to instructor ratios which means that you get the benefits of a more one to one training experience. We are able to do this because we are a relatively small PADI dive school and we prefer the more personal dive training approach. We firmly believe in producing the best divers that we can in the time that you are training with us... after all, our student divers are our walking CV!

Unlike many of our competitors, we offer unrivalled training time at our pool facility. At Scuba UK Diving, we offer 90 minute "water time" sessions as our standard, which means that you have the benefit and luxury of extra time to perfect your dive skills. Most dive centres and dive schools will only be able to offer you 45 to 60 minutes maximum water time per session.

At Scuba UK Diving, our policy is "No Hidden Costs"... all PADI study materials and PADI certification fees for standard and specialty courses are included within the quoted course price. Unlike some dive centres and schools, we only quote our customer divers the complete cost of the course... the price we quote you is the price you pay us!... No hidden "extras", No surprises and more importantly No "bargain basement" training. For a complete list of current course fees, please contact us for our current price schedule.
